My personal life consists of a very close knit (sometimes too close, haha) family, which includes my awesome husband, and our 2 amazing children. Brad and I have been together for close to 20 years, and love spending time with our kids, whom we love more than anything else in the Universe.

I am a lifetime long artist. A love of art is in my blood and were passed down to me from my parents. I first learned to shoot on my dad's 1980 Ricoh 35 mm film camera, and still used it into high school and college. I studied photography and lighting at Columbia College Chicago, and received my degree in the field in 2003. Art, photography and people are my passion and I have had the amazing opportunity to combine these three in my business. I really love meeting new people, hearing your stories, and helping you capture these lives you lead in a creative and beautiful way. Thanks for stopping by! Hope to hear from you soon. <3
